One man entered. No one came out. And the killer left no footprints.
When the body of wealthy contractor Wade Ogletree is discovered inside a locked lifeguard tower on a quiet Florida beach, the evidence presents an impossible puzzle.
A single trail of barefoot footprints leads across the sand to Tower Seven. There are no returning footprints. No murder weapon. No sign of an escape. And the tower's heavy shutter was barred from the inside.
Someone murdered Wade Ogletree. But how could the killer have vanished without leaving a trace?
For veteran lifeguard lieutenant Hester Nunes, the answer lies somewhere in the details everyone else is overlooking.
As county investigators struggle to explain the impossible crime, Hester begins examining the beach she has patrolled for years. Tide charts, construction records, equipment movements, and the meticulous observations of a local wildlife volunteer reveal troubling inconsistencies. What first appears to be an inexplicable killing begins to expose something far larger: a web of financial deception, buried secrets, and people with powerful reasons to keep the truth hidden.
But the closer Hester comes to understanding what happened that night, the more dangerous her investigation becomes. Someone knows exactly how to exploit the ordinary workings of the beach-and how to make evidence tell a convincing lie.
To expose the killer, Hester must reconstruct a crime that seems physically impossible, confront unsettling questions about the people she trusts, and recognize the significance of a clue that has been in plain sight from the beginning.
The footprints lead to a dead man. The truth leads somewhere no one expects.
The Footprints End Here is a gripping, atmospheric, and intricately plotted impossible-murder mystery featuring a resourceful female investigator, ingenious misdirection, compelling characters, and a solution hiding in the smallest details.
Perfect for readers who love clever detective fiction, locked-room mysteries, intricate whodunits, and the thrill of solving a seemingly unsolvable crime.
